Scalpe Plus
Scalpe Plus is a therapeutic anti-dandruff shampoo formulated with Ketoconazole and Zinc Pyrithione (ZPTO). Ketoconazole is a powerful antifungal agent that targets Malassezia, the yeast primarily responsible for dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Zinc Pyrithione acts as an antimicrobial and antifungal agent that helps reduce scalp scaling, itching, and irritation. Together, they help maintain a healthy, dandruff-free scalp.
Dosage by Body Weight
Wet hair and scalp thoroughly. Apply a sufficient amount of shampoo to produce enough lather, gently massaging it into the scalp. Leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes to allow the active ingredients to penetrate, then rinse thoroughly with water. Typically used twice a week for 4 weeks for active treatment, followed by once a week or once every two weeks for prevention and maintenance.
